PIH Health Dr. James P. Fitzgerald Spiritual Care Services

Whittier residents, Rich and Annette Atwood have made the lead donation to name PIH Health’s Spiritual Care Services in honor of the late James P. Fitzgerald MD.

Dr. Fitzgerald was a compassionate and visionary physician who practiced medicine at PIH Health Whittier Hospital for over 50 years. Dr. Fitzgerald held the belief that spiritual and emotional support is essential to patient care. Throughout his career and following his retirement, Dr. Fitzgerald spent many hours visiting patients providing support and comfort in their time of need.

This year, the PIH Health Foundation Gala Midnight at the Oasis will raise funds in support of Dr. James P. Fitzgerald Spiritual Care Services at PIH Health. The black tie affair will be held on Saturday, April 25, 2015 at the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort & Spa. The event will feature silent and live auctions, dinner and dancing to music provided by West Coast Music Company of Beverly Hills.

Support of Dr. James P. Fitzgerald Spiritual Care Services will directly impact the outstanding care that PIH Health delivers to the community. Funding will go towards supporting the outstanding services that the chaplains provide.
